J-Lo doesn’t want to pay for her limos

Sometimes I think celebrities are so used to getting things for free that it doesn’t occur to them to pay like a regular person. Swag has its advantages, but the downside is that sometimes you forget that you actually have to use your Black MasterCard. Shocking. I am a lover of J-Lo. I cannot explain why. Everyone seems to be able to tell me about 39 reasons why I should not like her, so I really can’t tell you why I do. But I’m not really a fan of her ordering half a dozen limos for herself, her friends, her family, and her hangers-on and not feeling the need to pay for them.

JENNIFER Lopez racked up more than $16,000 in limousine charges during the July premiere of her Spanish-language movie “El Cantante,” and now she’s fighting the limo company over the bill. While being chauffeured around New York for a week, Lopez – who is obviously pregnant, reportedly with twins – also ordered cars for her husband, Marc Anthony, stylist, Ken Paves, sister, Linda Lopez, and a slew of hangers-on. “Jennifer is being very difficult,” said Spiegel Limousine Corp. honcho Sherif, who asked that his last name not be used. “We’ve been calling for several months to collect on the bill. When I asked why they aren’t paying, the account person claimed nobody had authorized the transactions.” Lopez’s people apparently disagreed with Spiegel over how much is owed for time when the cars had to wait for passengers. After we called Lopez’s reps, Sherif asked us to quash the story, claiming he wouldn’t be paid if we reported the dispute. A Lopez rep told us, “The bills were being reviewed because there were some inaccuracies. An amount has been decided on, and payments are being made.”

That’s not really classy. J-Lo, pay up. And give me an exclusive on your twins. Not that it’s any big deal by now, the hype is totally over. J-Lo’s second husband, Cris Judd, confirmed her pregnancy today. She is orchestrating some kind of crazy publicity scheme here. I can’t even imagine what the point is – I guess it keeps us talking. But frankly, if we knew she was pregnant, that would probably keep us talking too. Plus she could get free baby swag. And since we’ve already established that she doesn’t like to pay for stuff, that can only be good.
